Annual event highlights achievements, new leaders selected
The Key West Chamber’s annual Installation and Awards Dinner took place this past weekend at Beachside Marriott. The evening was perfectly balanced with humor, swagger and well-deserved recognition as a new board was installed by the honorable judge Ed Scales. Outgoing board president Dr. Robin Lockwood praised his fellow members and board for their leadership, while passing the gavel to incoming president Nicki Will. Most notably, Virginia Panico participated in the event for the 30th time as Chamber EVP.
